Two-Layer Warping -- Basic Twill Part 1 (pin loom)

There are a few different options for warping a three-pin configured pin loom. Three-layer warping is perhaps most common. These videos feature TWO-layer warping which can be a little bit confusing especially regarding how to begin the square and which pins to wrap or skip on each row.

Part 1 gets you started with a basic 2/2 Twill pattern weave. Part 2 shows how to change the direction of the pattern.

My videos are silent 1) to save time and 2) to make it easier on non-English speakers or the hearing impaired.

I suggest printing or following these instructions as you watch the weaving demo:

R1: Plain weave (P). Wrap Cr4 #4 pin. Insert needle in space.
R2: (O2, U2) x 7, O2, U1. Exit between two pins at Cr3; wrap 2nd pin.
R3: (O2, U2) x 7, O2, U1. Exit in the space; wrap pin #1.
R4: O1, U1, (O2, U2) x 7, O1. Exit in the space; wrap pin #1.
R5: (U2, O2) x 7, U2, O1. Exit between #2 and #3; wrap #3.
R6: U1, O1, (U2, O2) x 7, U1. Exit between #2 and #3; wrap #3.
R7: Rpt R3
R8: Rpt R4
R9: Rpt R5
R10: Rpt R6
R11: Rpt R3...
